You likely have everything you need to make this recipe already at home. It’s amazing what you can create by combining simple ingredients in different ways! Texas Roadhouse Rolls Ingredients including flour, honey, egg, milk, yeast, butter, salt. Melted Butter: We’ll use butter in the dough, and add more to the rolls after they cook to make sure they are extra buttery. Egg: An egg makes yeast breads richer, adds color, and helps bind all of the ingredients together. Honey: Honey adds the perfect amount of sweetness to this recipe. Yeast: Instant dry yeast is the easiest to use, but active dry yeast can be used as well.
Flour: No need for special flours here, all purpose flour is perfect. You may need more or less for rolling out the rolls. Salt: Just a bit to give the rolls extra flavor and balance the sweetness of the honey. The ingredient measurements for this are in grams and ml. Using this system will give you the best possible result, as your ingredients will be measured more precisely. Knead: Add the flour and salt and knead for 3-4 minutes on medium speed.
The dough should pull away from the sides of the bowl when it’s ready. Add more flour if needed until the sides of the bowl come out clean. First Rise: Using oil or a non-stick spray, grease a bowl and the dough ball, cover, and allow to rise for one hour until the dough doubles in size. Roll: Punch the dough down, knead briefly, then roll out into a 1-inch thick rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Second Rise: Cover with a towel and allow the rolls to rise for 30 minutes. Bake: In a preheated oven, bake the rolls for 15 minutes. Brush: Remove from the oven and immediately brush with melted butter and serve with cinnamon honey butter.
Recipe Tips Start with scalded milk. To make a yeast roll with milk, it’s important to scald it first in order to kill the milk proteins, which can make the rolls hard and not fluffy. To get the milk to the right temperature, bring it just to a boil on the stove, and then let it cool down until it’s lukewarm. This recipe can be made with either Instant dry yeast or active dry yeast.
The recipe is written with instant yeast, but is the same with active, it will just need about 10 minutes to activate with the milk and honey. Add melted butter to the tops of the rolls while they are still warm. This way the butter seeps in and makes them super yummy. What to Serve with Texas Roadhouse Rolls Enjoy them for breakfast: Substitute these buttery rolls for the traditional biscuits you’d serve with jam or Sausage Gravy. I think these rolls would make amazing mini breakfast sandwiches too!
